Biography[]
Spider-Man 2[]
John Jameson is J. Jonah Jameson's son and a national hero; he's an astronaut, famous for having played football on the moon. He meets the actress Mary Jane Watson, falls in love with her, and becomes her fianceé. As the day of the wedding draws closer, MJ starts to become dubious about it, and she "tests" John kissing him just like Spider-Man did (upside down) but did not experience the same sensation given by the kiss from Spider-Man, although John greatly appreciates it.
At the wedding day, John awaits for his beloved Mary Jane, but she leaves him at the altar, choosing Peter over him. John is clearly distressed over the event, but his father just complains about the cost of the caviar.
